Originally posted by **zaneselvans** March 7, 2022
It's easy to tell datasette to sort tables using a single column, as [described in the docs](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/metadata.html#setting-a-default-sort-order):
```yaml
databases:
ferc1:
tables:
f1_edcfu_epda:
sort: created_time
```
But is there some way to tell it to sort using a composite key, like you would in an `ORDER BY` clause instead? For example, the way it's being done **[in this query](https://data.catalyst.coop/ferc1?sql=select%0D%0A++rowid%2C%0D%0A++respondent_id%2C%0D%0A++report_year%2C%0D%0A++spplmnt_num%2C%0D%0A++row_number%2C%0D%0A++row_seq%2C%0D%0A++row_prvlg%2C%0D%0A++acct_num%2C%0D%0A++depr_plnt_base%2C%0D%0A++est_avg_srvce_lf%2C%0D%0A++net_salvage%2C%0D%0A++apply_depr_rate%2C%0D%0A++mrtlty_crv_typ%2C%0D%0A++avg_remaining_lf%2C%0D%0A++report_prd%0D%0Afrom%0D%0A++f1_edcfu_epda%0D%0Awhere%0D%0A++respondent_id+%3D+210%0D%0A++AND+report_year+%3D+2020%0D%0Aorder+by%0D%0A++report_year%2C+report_prd%2C+respondent_id%2C+spplmnt_num%2C+row_number%0D%0Alimit%0D%0A++1000)** on our Datasette?
```sql
SELECT
respondent_id,
report_year,
spplmnt_num,
row_number,
row_seq,
row_prvlg,
acct_num,
depr_plnt_base,
est_avg_srvce_lf,
net_salvage,
apply_depr_rate,
mrtlty_crv_typ,
avg_remaining_lf,
report_prd
FROM
f1_edcfu_epda
WHERE
respondent_id = 210
AND report_year = 2020
ORDER BY
report_year, report_prd, respondent_id, spplmnt_num, row_number
LIMIT
1000
```
The problem here is that by default it's using `rowid` (the SQLite assigned autoincrementing integer key) to order the records, but the table **should** have a natural composite primary key, but the original database that this data is being migrated from doesn't enforce unique primary keys, so there are dupes, and we don't want to drop those rows, and the records are somehow getting jumbled in the database (the `rowid` ordering isn't lined up with the expected ordering based on the composite primary key, though it's close) and this jumbling is confusing to users that expect to see the data ordered based on the natural primary key.
I've tried setting the `sort` metadata parameter to a list of column names, a tuple of column names, a quoted string of comma-separated column names, a quoted string of a tuple of column names...
```yaml
databases:
ferc1:
tables:
f1_edcfu_epda:
sort: ""(report_year, report_prd, respondent_id, spplmnt_num, row_number)""
```
and they all give me server errors like:
```
Cannot sort table by (report_year, report_prd, respondent_id, spplmnt_num, row_number)
```

If I'm understanding the documentation right, `.lookup()` allows you to define the ""value"" column (the documentation uses name), but when you use `extracts` keyword as part of `.insert()`, `.upsert()` etc. the lookup must be done against a column named ""value"". I have an existing lookup table that I've populated with columns ""id"" and ""name"" as opposed to ""id"" and ""value"", and seems I can't use `extracts=`, unless I'm missing something...
Initial thought on how to do this would be to allow the dictionary value to be a tuple of table name column pair... so:
```
table = db.table(""trees"", extracts={""species_id"": (""Species"", ""name""})
```
I haven't dug too much into the existing code yet, but does this make sense? Worth doing?

It does not have a limit on the size of the response returned. It's possible to compose maliciously large SQL responses in a small number of rows using mechanisms like the `group_concat()` aggregate function. It would be good to avoid malicious SQL creating 100MB+ responses and potentially crashing the server.
I think the easiest place to implement that is here:
https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/f3f42957128c1e7ece584d45d9167f2ac003a3b8/datasette/app.py#L175-L190
Currently we use `cursor.fetchmany()` to fetch up to 1,001 rows at once. Instead, we could switch to iterating through `cursor.fetchone()` (or just using `for row in cursor`) and keeping a running tally of the size of the response as we go - maybe just using `rough_response_size += len(str(row))`. If that goes above a certain threshold we can terminate the response with an error, like we do with timelimits.
The bigger challenge here is understanding how well this approach works and what impact it will have on overall Datasette performance.

This `template_data()` function calculates extra template context variables which are necessary for the HTML view but should not be included in the JSON.
Example of how that is used today: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/2b79f2bdeb1efa86e0756e741292d625f91cb93d/datasette/views/table.py#L672-L704
With features like Facets in #255 I'm beginning to want to move more items into the `template_data()` - in the case of facets it's the `suggested_facets` array. This saves that feature from being calculated (involving several SQL queries) for the JSON case where it is unlikely to be used.
But... as an API user, I want to still optionally be able to access that information.
Solution: Add a `?_extra=suggested_facets&_extra=table_metadata` argument which can be used to optionally request additional blocks to be added to the JSON API.
Then redefine as many of the current `template_data()` features as extra arguments instead, and teach Datasette to return certain extras by default when rendering templates.
This could allow the JSON representation to be slimmed down further (removing e.g. the `table_definition` and `view_definition` keys) while still making that information available to API users who need it.",107914493,datasette,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/262/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,

# Run this in a transaction:
with conn:
# We have to read all the views first, because we need to drop and recreate them
db = sqlite_utils.Database(conn)
views = {v.name: v.schema for v in db.views if table.lower() in v.schema.lower()}
for view in views.keys():
db[view].drop()
db[table].transform(
types=types,
rename=rename,
drop=drop,
column_order=[p[0] for p in order_pairs],
)
# Now recreate the views
for name, schema in views.items():
db.create_view(name, schema)
```
So grab a copy of any view that might reference this table, start a transaction, drop those views, run the transform, recreate the views again.
> I wonder if this should become an option in `sqlite-utils`? Maybe a `recreate_views=True` argument for `table.tranform(...)`? Should it be opt-in or opt-out?

Some of the factors making me think PostgreSQL support could be worth the effort:
- Serverless. I'm getting increasingly excited about writable-database use-cases for Datasette. If it could talk to PostgreSQL then users could easily deploy it on Heroku or other serverless providers that can talk to a managed RDS-style PostgreSQL.
- Existing databases. Plenty of organizations have PostgreSQL databases. They can export to SQLite using [db-to-sqlite](https://github.com/simonw/db-to-sqlite) but that's a pretty big barrier to getting started - being able to run `datasette postgresql://connection-string` and start trying it out would be a massively better experience.
- Data size. I keep running into use-cases where I want to run Datasette against many GBs of data. SQLite can do this but PostgreSQL is much more optimized for large data, especially given the existence of tools like Citus.
- Marketing. Convincing people to trust their data to SQLite is potentially a big barrier to adoption. Even if I've convinced myself it's trustworthy I still have to convince everyone else.
- It might not be that hard? If this required a ground-up rewrite it wouldn't be worth the effort, but I have a hunch that it may not be too hard - most of the SQL in Datasette should work on both databases since it's almost all portable SELECT statements. If Datasette did DML this would be a lot harder, but it doesn't.
- Plugins! This feels like a natural surface for a plugin - at which point people could add MySQL support and suchlike in the future.

It would be good to both document this in more detail, but ideally also to come up with a more obvious pattern for inserting common types of spatial data.

Since datasette configuration is all file-based, one way to achieve that would be to support a ""datasette_files"" table which, if present is used to search for file contents by path.

Initially I decided that the API shouldn't be able to create new tokens at all - I don't like the idea of an API token holder creating themselves additional tokens.
Then I realized that two of the API features are specifically more useful if you can generate fresh tokens via the API:
- Tokes that expire after a time limit are MUCH more useful if they can be automatically generated
- Likewise, tokens that are restricted to a subset of permissions (see #1855) make more sense to be generated like this, especially in conjunction with expiry times",107914493,datasette,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1889/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,

I have a lot of Datasettes deployed now, and tailing logs shows that they are being *hammered* by search engine crawlers even though many of them are not interesting enough to warrant indexing.
I'm starting to think blocking crawlers would actually be a better default for most people, provided it was well documented and easy to understand how to allow them.

I've been trying to build this as a `register_routes()` plugin, as originally suggested in #870 - though unfortunately it looks like those plugins can't replace existing Datasette default views at the moment, see #1517. [UPDATE: I was wrong about this, plugins can over-ride default views just fine]
I also know that I want to have a fully documented template context for `table.html` as a major step on the way to Datasette 1.0, see #1510.

```python
db[""places""].insert(
{""name"": ""Wales"", ""geometry"": wkt},
conversions={""geometry"": ""GeomFromText(?, 4326)""},
)
```
This proposal is to support values in that dictionary that are objects, not strings, which can represent more complex conversions - spun out from #399.
New proposed mechanism:
```python
from sqlite_utils.utils import LongitudeLatitude
db[""places""].insert(
{
""name"": ""London"",
""point"": (-0.118092, 51.509865)
},
conversions={""point"": LongitudeLatitude},
)
```
Here `LongitudeLatitude` is a magical value which does TWO things: it sets up the `GeomFromText(?, 4326)` SQL function, and it handles converting the `(51.509865, -0.118092)` tuple into a `POINT({} {})` string.
This would involve a change to the `conversions=` contract - where it usually expects a SQL string fragment, but it can also take an object which combines that SQL string fragment with a Python conversion function.
Best of all... this resolves the `lat, lon` v.s. `lon, lat` dilemma because you can use `from sqlite_utils.utils import LongitudeLatitude` OR `from sqlite_utils.utils import LatitudeLongitude` depending on which you prefer!

Short version: it would be neat if it was possible to stash some data on the `request` object such that a later plugin/middleware-type-thing could use that to influence the final returned response - similar to the kinds of things you can do with Django middleware.
The `asgi_wrapper()` mechanism doesn't have access to the request or response objects - it gets `scope` and can mess around with `receive` and `send`, but those are pretty low-level primitives.
Since Datasette has well-defined `request` and `response` objects now it might be nice to have a middleware layer that can manipulate those directly.",107914493,datasette,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/2168/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,

- https://github.com/simonw/llm/pull/186
I have a table with this schema:
```sql
CREATE TABLE [collections] (
[id] INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
[name] TEXT,
[model] TEXT
);
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX [idx_collections_name]
ON [collections] ([name]);
```
So the primary key is an integer (because it's going to have a huge number of rows foreign key related to it, and I don't want to store a larger text value thousands of times), but there is a unique constraint on the `name` - that would be the primary key column if not for all of those foreign keys.
Problem is, fetching the collection by name is actually pretty inconvenient.
Fetch by numeric ID:
```python
try:
table[""collections""].get(1)
except NotFoundError:
# It doesn't exist
```
Fetching by name:
```python
def get_collection(db, collection):
rows = db[""collections""].rows_where(""name = ?"", [collection])
try:
return next(rows)
except StopIteration:
raise NotFoundError(""Collection not found: {}"".format(collection))
```
It would be neat if, for columns where we know that we should always get 0 or one result, we could do this instead:
```python
try:
collection = table[""collections""].get(name=""entries"")
except NotFoundError:
# It doesn't exist
```
The existing `.get()` method doesn't have any non-positional arguments, so using `**kwargs` like that should work:

It consumes the messages, which means if you try to call it a second time you won't be able to get at the body.
This is efficient - we don't end up with a `request` object property with potentially megabytes of content that we never look at again - but it's inconvenient for cases like middleware or functions where we don't know if the body has been consumed yet or not.
Potential solution: set `request._body` the first time it is called, and return that on subsequent calls.
Potential optimization: only do this for bodies that are shorter than a certain threshold - maybe 1MB - and raise an exception if you attempt to call `post_body()` multiple times against one of those larger bodies.

This is pretty fiddly. It might be good for `datasette publish` to grow a helper option that does effectively this - hashes the databases (and the `metadata.json`) and compares them to the deployed version.",107914493,datasette,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/917/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,
